Mining Rush: score more points in one minute

In Mining Rush you have one minute to mine. Enter /miningrush, wait for preparation and work with the given pickaxe: ores bring points, stone only opens the passage.

Mining Rush mine with colorful ores
Game mine Mining Rush on LonelyCraft. Before a new round, its contents are updated.

When does mining begin?

From one to ten players can participate in a round. The first participant starts preparing for 15 seconds. If you see a wait, don't try to break the lobby: loot opens after the general 60-second countdown begins.

The mine is updated before the round. Mined blocks do not drop items or experience, so there is no need to smelt ore, empty your backpack, or bring your own pickaxe. The score changes immediately after the ore is destroyed.

Choose points on a short path

Five iron ores nearby give 20 points; one diamond - 12. If you need to pierce an empty stone for a long time to get a diamond, take the iron first. Rare ore is profitable when you can already see it and can get to it quickly.

Lay short branches and look at the opened walls. A long tunnel blindly eats up a significant part of a minute. It is useless to remember the coordinates of the previous vein: the mine is updated for the next attempt.

In the last seconds, grab visible neighboring blocks. Take your opponents into account: the found target is not reserved for you; another player can destroy it earlier.

Repeat or exit

Wait for the count. After ten seconds, the next preparation will automatically begin in the lobby. For one attempt after the result, execute /miningrush leave or use the exit item.

/miningrush top shows the best results in one round. The total of a few minutes does not replace a personal best. Regular items are returned upon exit, the temporary game pickaxe remains in the mode.

If you want to change production to reaction, Pixel's rules are placed in several steps. Pixel: other short mode.

For the Mining Rush challenge, the completed round with a result is important, not entering the lobby. Mini-game tasks.

Frequently asked questions

Why break a stone if it doesn't give you points?

To open the ore behind it or shorten the path. The stone itself does not increase the score.

Where did the mined diamonds go?

Mining Rush counts game points. Ores here are not given out as items for transfer to survival.

Can I play without opponents?

Yes, one person is enough to start. The mine and minute timer also work in a single attempt.
